Credit Cards

  
Remember when your mother used to tell you don't write down anything you wouldn't want the whole city to read?

* The same goes for your credit card details. A merchant who requests that you email your credit card number should make you instantly suspicious as they can easily set up an online payment system through their website, or a secure PayPal account.

* Secondly, there are very sophisticated programs which scan emails for credit card numbers. These programs can even detect partial credit card numbers sent in different emails so there is no safe way to email your credit card details.
